Dude! Nice wheels!
Is that a permanent thermometer?

The little scoot goes better and better each day. The torsion cont. is good to go, now I just have to modify the clutch and the "rear tranny" is finished. Then the synthetics go in, together with the lighter rollers. Few hours of "seat of pants" testing and then we'll see what this thing does. P.S. I'm really really thinking of putting a 51mm piston in there...dunno. Maybe I'll build one "race" scoot from scratch. This is just a daily driver

Whoa, I finally got a DAY to work on my scooter! Work work work... I managed to find the gauges, after a year of searching: hand mock up yesterday night...warning: mobile phone pictures, eeeek! I still need to get the gauges to sit lower, in my opinion... Now off to find a decent headlight, shove that in there and that's it for now! How do you guys like it? Any comments/suggestions? Love to hear from ya

thank you very much guys!! I still have to sort out the hole in the headset+minor few issues. I went to work with the scoot today without the front light, it was superfun I ride bikes my whole life, it was very cool riding a scoot with my bike parts so, no negative comments? my best friend got them out as soon as he saw the pics (too high gauges, cables, etc.) hhahaahha in real life this looks muuuuch much better, I get too much attention now :/ any front light suggestions? I'm planning on putting it in the front mask (below the handlebars)

Maybe a small driving light like Vert has one his Triton? If you "molded" it into the front i think that would look cool and be bright! img.photobucket.com/albums/v30/90GTVert/tritonv2/411.jpgEdit: i dunno, the more i look at it the less im sure it would look good Maybe if you put them both in side by side that would look cool!?!

What do you think about this one? I'll just take the light part, without the black plastic www.motomike.eu/vertus/category/10315000000/article/279335?show=gallery&sr=180yeah, I also think that I'm not going classic with this one...the gauges are the only things that will look like that, and I still have to get those chrome rings black...shoulda look MUCH better something like this: (PS mock up)
